Overview

Liquipedia aims to be the definitive source for all things StarCraft. This site is a wiki, which means that it is user-driven and dependent on your contributions. We welcome any and all contributions; the information on this page is to help you get started.

Formatting and Good English

Templates

We have an easy-to-follow template for almost every type of page. Check the List of Templates page for a list of almost any type of page you want to make or wiki-template you want to use! All coding is done for you. If you need some extra code done, just find us in IRC at #liquipedia on QuakeNet.

Copy Editing

There is always room to improve the spelling, grammar, and tone of most of our articles. Even without much factual knowledge, you can help us improve the quality of articles on this wiki.

Style

We try to enforce a style guide with the intent of giving the wiki a more unified look. Treat it as a guideline, as other people can always clean up your work later.

Factual Content:Leagues, Maps, Players, Teams

Players

Who and what to add?

Players may receive their individual pages, as long as they surpass a certain threshold of notability. Check the bullet points below. If your chosen player fits at least one of these, then they are likely notable to warrant a page on this wiki.

Previous history: If the player was a notable pro-gamer in another game (Warcraft III, StarCraft: Brood War...)

Achievements: If the player has earned at least 250 EUR (340 USD) in tournaments

Sponsored: If the player is a notable member of a major team.

Strategies: If this player has made widely known strategies.

Liquipedia Links: If the player has accrued five or more links from tournaments, strategies, or shows. (Discount any link that are related to the player's team and their pages.)

Achievements

The purpose of an article's achievements paragraph is to display the most notable achievements that have been earned thus far by a player. This section needs to be as concise as possible, meaning that it should not include every single thing that a player has done in their career. The categories of achievements that are relevant or not in this section are listed below:

Accepted

Top 4 in any premier tournament.

This includes IEM, MLG, GSL Code S, TSL and other similar events. Big prize tournaments are full of notable players and the top 4 should be included as this is a major achievement. A premier event generally has over $10,000 prize money and is usually live.

Middle Ground

Qualifiers

Exceptions are made for qualifiers. If a tournament is a qualifier for a major tournament and falls under the below category then it can be added as an achievement. An example of this would be the WCG Qualifiers.

Weekly tournament (with a prize pool) 1st place

Not Accepted

Second/third/fourth places in weekly tournaments.

Daily tournaments

No-Prize Events

Events without prizes such as showmatches or exhibition events should not be included.
